We do welcome articles in other fields, however they should be business coaching related.

- Articles should be at least 900 words.
- All articles must be original content and can not be published on other websites or blogs.

We use tools to check for duplicate content – so don’t even bother submitting content which is scraped, plagiarized and not original.
- Articles must be relevant to our business and be interesting. We want to provide information that people will find interesting and learn. Think about what has already been discussed, and think about how your article can add to that. Make sure your article is an in depth discussion and analysis of your topic.
